Title: Canon 400mm 5.6 Lens Camouflage
Post by: DavieG on May 13, 2011, 09:41:33 PM
I am considering buying camouflage for my Canon 400mm 5.6 lens and wondered which one is best. I have been looking at two - one from Watching Wildlife Supplies and the other from Stealth Wildlife. Both are around the same price, but what are their pros and cons?

I'd reccommend the neoprene covers from wildlife watching supples they are well made and offer excellent protection against knocks and scrapes. I use them on the canon 100-400 and 300 F4 lens. About £36:00 a set they sound expensive (they are) but lenses aren't cheap.

Cheers for the reply. Yes, I've gone for the same set for the 400mm Canon prime lens. Great quality, but it's just a little fiddly each time you want to move the attached lens hood as you have to remove/attach a seperate piece using velcro.
